Broussard Skateboard's sales are expected to increase by 15% from $9.0 million in 2016 to $10.35 million in 2017. Its assets totaled $4 million at the end of 2016.

At the end of 2016, current liabilities were $1.4 million, consisting of $450,000 of accounts payable, $500,000 of notes payable, and $450,000 of accruals.

The identical firm's capital intensity ratio (A0*/S0) is -Select-higher than, lower than and equal to than Broussard's; therefore, the identical firm is -Select-less more the same capital intensive - it would require -Select-a smaller, larger the and same increase in total assets to support the increase in sales.
